There's delicious variety in the latest drinks offerings - from a seasonal coconut beer to a magical new wine range.
Little Creatures has launched its new winter seasonal, Coconut Banger, a milk stout combining malts, vanilla, cocoa bean and shredded coconut.
Russ Gosling, head brewer at Little Creatures Fremantle, said people are increasingly seeking out new and innovative beers that make the time we’re spending at home more of an occasion.
The recommended retail price of Little Creatures Coconut Banger is $25 per six-pack and it has a 5.6% ABV.
Lust Liquor has added Lime & Soda Seltzer – with just 88 calories and zero sugar – to its alcoholic RTD range.
“Our alcoholic Lime & Soda seltzer has been carefully crafted through the fermentation of malt and sugar,” co-creator Nick Rowell said. “Thanks to a naturally refreshing lime flavour, this beverage has a zesty citrus pop. It’s an easy-drinking crowd-pleaser that both men and women can confidently hold in their hand."
Lust Seltzer will be on-shelf from mid-July in selected independent bottle shops across Australia as well as selected Dan Murphy’s and BWS stores throughout QLD and NSW.
De Bortoli has called its newest wine range Grenache Wizardry, paying homage to the magic skill of winemaking, the versatility of the Grenache grape, as well as the transformative nature of different forms of wine.
Chief Winemaker Steve Webber said: “These new wines – Grenache, Grenache Blanc and Grenache Rosé – are all wonderfully easy to drink and perfect for those who are looking for a different style of wine which is lighter, gentler and textured.”
Grenache Wizardry can be found at independent and major retailers, on-premise venues and at De Bortoli cellar doors. RRP: $23 each.

The KXG Australian Classic Dry Gin also features notes of juniper, preserved lemon, grapefruit, bakers’ spices with exotic woods.
